let the stars shine,
let the cars park,
let the firemen
make the fires dark;
let the children play,
let the wind blow,
let all the actors
put on a great show;
let the doors close,
let the lights dim,
let the policemen
save us all from them;
let the world know love,
let the people know hate,
let us all know just
what is our heart's fate;
let me see you
under a pale moon,
let me hear you
uncovering my tomb;
let me live in the forest,
let me die in the snow,
let us dance in the rain
sparkling in your glow;
let the world spin on
in repetitious tirade,
but, I ask, please
never let this moment fade;
where I will kiss
without this dying shell,
when all of my heart
has fallen into your well;
when these fears
that grip me too tight
unravel with your touch
into the dark, dark night.
